Abstract: Some embodiments include an x-ray detector, comprising: a plastic housing; a conductive coating disposed on the plastic housing; a two-dimensional sensor array disposed within the plastic housing and configured to generate image data in response to incident x-rays; a front plate connected to the plastic housing, the front plate and the plastic housing forming an enclosure surrounding the two-dimensional sensor array; and at least one rigid component coupled to the plastic housing and configured to increase a rigidity the plastic housing; wherein the conductive coating and the front plate form at least part of an electromagnetic interference shield around the two-dimensional sensor array.

Abstract: Disclosed is a wastewater treatment apparatus utilizing time tested techniques for recirculating media treatment with proprietary advancements to produce a system capable of nitrifying and denitrifying wastewater through the use of passive calcium carbonate and organic carbon feed systems. By creating aerobic and anaerobic zones and the ability to monitor and adjust these zones by physical and mechanical means with minimal operator involvement, wastewater is recycled through these zones thereby creating an enhanced biological filtering process. The treated wastewater is then discharged to standard leaching facilities, various irrigation uses and/or introduced to further treatment for water recycling and reuse.
